The filename can include variables, so previously created backup file will not be
overwritten. The following variables are available:
•
%Y: 4 figure year (e.g. 2001)
•
%y: 2 figure year (e.g. 01)
•
%m: Month (from 01 to 12)
•
%d: Day (from 01 to 31)
•
%H: Hour (from 00 to 23)
•
%M: Minute (from 00 to 59)
•
%S: Second (from 00 to 59)
•
%U: Week of the year (Value from 00 to 53)
•
%w: Day of the week (0 for Sunday to 6 for Saturday)
•
%j: Day of the year (from 001 to 366)
If for instance you specify the destination
"backup/%m.%d.rbu"
, the filename will include the current month and day. Thus the backup file will not be
overwritten until next year.

CA keys
Private keys are not part of the regular backups for security reasons. However
particularly the CA keys are essential to the functionality. As CA certificates are valid
for many years and usually won't change during this period of time, creating a backup
once is enough. The backup file is password protected.
